  • I have been walking almost every day at least 10,000 steps to help lose weight and so far it is working well. Changed my diet to exclude bread & pasta. Trying to eat more vegetables & fruit.

  • I'm ready to get started again. I always do better with encouragement, so I joined a team at work and we are helping one another reach our goals. This is day 3 and I'm walking more steps and trying to manage my meals. Hope this works!

  • It is hard but It can be done. I have lost 70 pounds without surgery. I had considered it, but it scared me more then being overweight. Besides, I have never had any type of surgery and was not about to start. I just changed the way I ate. I had alot of encouragement so feel free to add me and I will see if I can help.

  • I recently started to use MFP and found it great to track what I eat. It is very easy to use and most foods are available on the tracker. I am participating in a weight loss challenge at my gym and am very motivated. I do exercise as well which is really helping. Please friend me and I will try to support.

  • When I first started to loss weight, I did it by changing the foods I ate. I ate more vegetables (steamed), drinking more water, trying to add more fruit. I am not a big fan. I was able to lose 30 lbs. over three months but I did start to exercise because it became more difficult to see a loss. Once I was able to motivate…
